Ratings and reviews

AMAZING APP EXCEPT! The final sound for the bell is way too loud and aversive and has scared me out of my meditation a couple times and now the anticipation of the final sound causes stress. It would be cool if the main bell is chimed 5 times quickly to indicate end of session. The main bell is a good bell. 2ndly, the haptic just stops when session ends and so there I am just holding my breath until I figure it out. Should also buzz 5 times quickly at end. This mode is great for the bus.

Great, reliable app. Customization of breathing techniques is an excellent addition. The auditory cues are good, but only indicate beginning of each step. It would be very helpful to have audible cues that relate to overall time for each step as well, especially for those who have vision difficulties - for example, a sound that builds in volume, tone, etc during each phase of the exercise. Thanks for a great app.

Excellent app. Ad-free, simple, free. There are quite a few options in terms of lengths of inhale/hold/exhale. You can even set a custom one (something I didn't realize at first!). Things I would improve: The flower/mandala is nice, but hard to gauge. A simple loading bar style option would make it clear how many seconds are left. I found that with the standard 4-4-4-4 default, I wasn't exciting fast enough, so I quickly became out of sync. Hopefully part of my morning and night routine.

What's new

Here's the biggest Breathly update so far, Breathly v2!
I completely redesigned Breathly's interface from the ground-up, which is essential in order to introduce new features (in the future) that have been requested for ages (pure dark more, saving multiple custom patterns, etc...).
With this update I also implemented a more effective light/dark, and tweaked a couple of settings.
I haven't removed previously existing feature — but I'm open to feedback!
Have a great day!
